Copenhagen Stock Exchange characteristics

Novo Nordisk — Europe's most valuable company

Novo Nordisk is by far the largest company on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange and forms an exceptionally large proportion of the total value of the C25 index. The company's growth with GLP-1 drugs has at times made it the most valuable listed company in all of Europe.

Currency risk — Danish krone (DKK)

The Danish krone is pegged to the euro through a strict exchange rate mechanism (ERM II), so DKK/EUR fluctuations are very small. This makes the Danish stock exchange a lower currency risk destination for euro-based investors compared to Sweden or Norway.

Strong renewable energy sector

Denmark is one of the world's leading developers of offshore wind power. Ørsted and Vestas are global industry leaders. For investors, the Danish stock exchange offers unique exposure to the wind energy sector.
